    Description

    Hi everyone! We are Adrienn and Oliver, living in the deep countryside of Hungary on a 1.5 ac farm.
    We build the farm based on permaculture, zero waste and eco-logical pillars. We farm, garden, produce, keep animals, collect edibles and herbs from the surrounding area: 3753 ha of protected nature reserve.
    We also make soap, fermenting, natural remedies and much more.

    Come, join us in this beautiful area, where you can learn all about farming, gardening and permaculture!

    We offer our RV, and a meal a day for exchange of 4 ours of volunteer work. Farming and gardening experience is not required, we'll teach you all ;)

    We can accept one person or a couple :)
